Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1223 - 1224: Shopping
Chapter 1223: Chapter 1224: Shopping
"I... maybe I shouldn’t? They don’t really mean any harm..."
Belusir said weakly to Veronia, glancing at Belusir, Feng Yuan sighed. He didn’t quite understand why a Divine Beast like Belusir with such a temperament would exist. However, it seemed to be not a big problem. Seeing the sister-like demeanor of Veronia, Feng Yuan knew that if any humans wanted to exploit this weakness of Belusir, they would probably be in for a hard time.
"Belusir, being like this... it’s very easy for bad people to take advantage of you."
Zhong Liuyan couldn’t help but utter a warning while looking at the white cat on the table. As for taking advantage of Belusir? That thought hadn’t crossed her mind. Not to mention that she was so familiar with Feng Yuan that it wouldn’t be right to do anything to the other Divine Beasts, even if that weren’t the case, she wouldn’t stoop to such actions. A moment’s deception might bring personal gain, but who knows what the future could hold?
It wasn’t that they couldn’t gamble on the future, just that doing so was too tiring, and moreover, Pei Yu didn’t need it. As for herself? How many Divine Pact Makers are there in this world? Compared to most ordinary people, she already stood at a much higher starting point.
Belusir looked down, seemingly embarrassed. Veronia then stood directly in front of it and said something, while Agunas just glanced at Veronia and paid no more attention. It also wasn’t worried about Veronia instigating Belusir into re-establishing Mitradite. Now Veronia had basically abandoned that idea, not to mention, even if not, Agunas wouldn’t let any other Divine Beasts intervene in the matter of rebuilding Mitradite.
Agunas was indeed somewhat dissatisfied with Belusir’s situation but didn’t know how to deal with it. Since Veronia was willing to help, it was naturally pleased to see so.
The group was chatting in the tea house hall, eating desserts and discussing future plans, but during this time, Dou Yanlan and the others also noticed that something was off about Feng Yuan. Everyone was envisioning the future, except for Feng Yuan who seemed indifferent, but remembering his usual demeanor, they didn’t take it to heart.
"Phew~ Finally arrived at Cha Mu Town~"
As soon as they got off the vehicle, Feng Yuan stretched and yawned, and Qi Chen glanced at him, not bothering to say anything. To claim discomfort from a long journey? Not to mention it’s only a little over an hour’s ride from Qiaoshui Town to Cha Mu Town, and during the ride, Feng Yuan had turned into Little Husky, scampering around. Could he really be complaining about being too tired from sitting too long?
"Eh? Free time in town first? What is she planning to arrange for us?"
Right then, Chen Xin announced today’s schedule loudly to everyone. Upon hearing that the next destination mentioned by Chen Xin was a secret, everyone became curious. After all, perhaps only Bai You and Chen Xin knew the details of the itinerary; the others simply followed her arrangements.
According to her, this was to preserve the element of surprise. But having free time in Cha Mu Town for an hour somehow felt a bit boring, thought Feng Yuan. After Chen Xin finished arranging, she came over with Bai You, and with a smile, asked Feng Yuan,
"Do you mind accompanying me around Cha Mu Town?"
"I don’t mind, but what about Qi Chen and the others?"
Seeing Feng Yuan bring up his name, Qi Chen rolled his eyes and said,
"I won’t disturb you, lest you keep flaunting your PDA treats in front of us."
Hearing Qi Chen’s words, Feng Yuan scratched his head with a bright smile. Seeing this, Bai You sighed and said,
"You know it’s impossible, why do you still..."
"I know it’s impossible, but... I want to create a beautiful memory before leaving..."
"Well... okay, let’s go together then."
With a sigh, Feng Yuan said somewhat helplessly. Naturally, Qi Chen and the others wouldn’t accompany him to go shopping. Didn’t they see how obvious Chen Xin’s behavior was? If they went to join in the fun, it would clearly be making themselves look foolish.
Bai You didn’t go with Chen Xin either. Once Feng Yuan and Chen Xin left, she casually strolled around Cha Mu Town with Xiao Bai. Since this was Chen Xin’s wish, she had no reason to disturb her. If, Feng Yuan could help her, that would be good. Thinking this, Bai You chuckled softly and shook her head. As for Feng Yuan, she couldn’t see through him completely but still grasped some of his thoughts. Although she doesn’t know what he fears, he definitely wouldn’t date Chen Xin right now. And she understood Chen Xin well; she wouldn’t accept pity-driven help. If that were not the case, Chen Xin wouldn’t have to struggle so much.
"What do you think of this? It’ll look great on you~"
Feng Yuan said, smiling as he pointed to a silver ornament being sold by the roadside. Agunas and Veronia had taken Belusir off somewhere; Feng Yuan wasn’t concerned about that. He knew that if they came along, it would probably make Chen Xin feel somewhat uncomfortable.
After all, they were Divine Beasts capable of freely communicating with humans, different from Xiao Ji. Apart from Xiao Ji, Kong Qing had also taken Big Cat and the others off to follow Agunas somewhere to play. Originally, Little Ice Cream wanted to cling to Feng Yuan, but Kong Qing didn’t bother being polite; it simply swept its tail and forcefully took it along.
Yeah, in terms of strength, Little Ice Cream is no match for Kong Qing. Not to mention Kong Qing, even Xiao Ji could beat it. It’s just that Xiao Ji, while sometimes dissatisfied with Little Ice Cream, would not actively bully it.
"Do you really think it’s nice, or...?"
Looking at the silver jewelry on the stall, Chen Xin eyed Feng Yuan with some suspicion. Could it be that he was just humoring her? But then again, she had been capricious, so it seemed there wasn’t much harm in what Feng Yuan did.
"Who said that!"
Seeing Chen Xin’s doubt, Feng Yuan strode forward, picked up the silver jewelry she liked and, without any explanation, helped Chen Xin put it on, and then holding up a mirror said,
"Take a look for yourself, see if I’m telling the truth."
"Ah? This..."
Seeing her reflection in the mirror, adorned with the floral silver jewelry, Chen Xin appeared startled. Although she did dress up occasionally, she rarely chose floral accessories. Perhaps she did not consider herself to fit with those kinds of ornaments? But...
Yue Bai curiously scrutinized Chen Xin, pondering how just a piece of silver jewelry could seem to make such a difference? Chen Xin usually looked steady but lacked vitality. Now, adorned with the jewelry, she appeared somewhat lively and playful?
With its fluffy tail swinging back and forth, Yue Bai didn’t quite understand what had happened and why Chen Xin’s appearance had changed so much. At this moment, Feng Yuan said with pride,
"How about that? I wasn’t just giving you lip service~"
As Feng Yuan paid for the jewelry, Chen Xin was still in shock and hadn’t fully processed the situation. By the time she did, Feng Yuan had already completed the purchase. Looking at Feng Yuan, Chen Xin said with an inexplicable expression,
"You..."
"Hehe~ Although I’m not rich, this amount is nothing to worry about~"
Hearing this, Chen Xin chuckled lightly. She knew Feng Yuan’s financial situation well enough. To say he was wealthy would be an overstatement; he typically gathered Spiritual Medicine and Materials in the wild and sold them for money. But to say he was destitute? With two Divine Beasts at his side, there were countless ways for him to obtain a fortune.
Of course, what she didn’t realize was that for Feng Yuan, finding those rare Spiritual Medicine and Materials was incredibly easy. Nevertheless, she understood that, for Feng Yuan, this amount of money was nothing. And...
"Then I’ll reluctantly accept it."
Chen Xin couldn’t help but laugh as she spoke, clearly delighted yet framing it as a burden. Indeed, she was being influenced by him. Looking at Chen Xin, Feng Yuan smiled slightly and said,
"So, do you want to reluctantly accept a few more gifts?"
"Forget it, if I have too much stuff, I won’t know where to put it all."
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Chen Xin’s smile gradually faded as she sighed and said while surveying the surrounding stalls, Feng Yuan whispered,
"If you really want, I can make you win instantly. How about it? You could save yourself a lot of effort~"
Staring at Feng Yuan for a while, Chen Xin shook her head and said,
"Forget it, this is my own matter, and besides..."
She didn’t quite understand what she was thinking. If Feng Yuan intervened, maybe she really could win the bet immediately. But... was it her pride? The issue she had been struggling with for so long was just a trivial matter to some people... Although that didn’t seem too bad, why did she feel so dissatisfied? Was it because she didn’t want to seem useless in front of him? Or was it something else? Chen Xin was confused for a moment.
